ONS Foundation Platform Tennis Injury Prevention

Sally Frank, Neighbor

The ONS Foundation for Clinical Research and Education, Inc. will present a free program about common injuries among platform, or “paddle” tennis players and what can be done to prevent them.  The seminar, which was rescheduled from January 12 due to a snow storm, is presented by orthopedic surgeon and sports medicine specialist Dr. Paul Sethi and ONS physical therapist Alicia Hirscht. It is planned to take place in advance of the 46th Annual American Platform Tennis Association (APTA) Junior National Championships on January 29th at clubs in New Canaan, Darien, Wilton, Stamford and Greenwich.

The injury prevention seminar will be held in the Community Room at the Darien Library, from 7-8:15 PM.  Admission is free, however registration is requested. To register call 203-869-3131. For more information visit www.ONS-foundation.org.
